Hiding from the world & obsessing over all the details of composing & recording my new album. It’s a long time overdue so I hope you’ll like it. In the meantime here’s some stills from He Comes in the Night. The whole thing is on YouTube, if you feel like cosying up with a small, eerie song.
Snows in Kernow. Just for a little while ❄️

Yes it was dark, wet and bitter cold last night, but the wonderful WAD Morris brought fire and sunshine to Old Bakery Studios Truro. I sang a solo set afterwards. Huge thanks Old Bakery for having us, & huge thanks all of you who left your snug nests to hang with us. May you be warm 🌞
Who’s coming along on Friday 21? I’ll be singing at Old Bakery Studios Truro, joined by the amazing WAD Morris - you won’t want to miss them 🩷 www.oldbakerystudios.co.uk/upcoming-eve...
It can feel as if the stones cast a spell of perpetuation upon the landscape. Archetypes of transmission and reception echoed into a manifesting modernity. This is fanciful, but it's also one of the ways the Long Neolithic works – it infects our imaginations. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday
A magical night singing & conversing with visionary artist Ben Edge at his amazing Children of Albion show at Fitzrovia Chapel. Def go & see this show if you’re in London 🌞
A proud moment this summer: bagging a stone that isn't already on the @megalithic.bsky.social (very rare occurrence!). On the Beara peninsula east of Adrigole, a little way north of the Drumlave row. It involved crawling under barbed wire but then we saw there was a gate. #StandingStoneSunday
Our Patreon Exclusive episode for November 2025 all about The Gunpowder Plot came out just yesterday! 🖤
The episode takes a strangely personal approach, as Martin's ancestors, the Vaux family of Northamptonshire, were involved in the plot!
Listen to the whole story on our Patreon now!
Wonderful review by Patrick Clarke in @thequietus.com of the Life and Songs of Martin Carthy celebration. Such an honour to be part of this & to sing for him in real life ♥️♥️♥️ #thedaddy #martincarthy
This Saturday at Theatreship - John Renbourn’s guitar! I’ll be joining the brilliant Dariush Kanani, to represent the singing of my beloved Dorris Henderson. John & Dorris recorded 2 albums together in the mid-1960s 🖤 dice.fm/event/dknn5o...
The new Ben Edge exhibition at the Fitzrovia Chapel: stunning folkloric art in a spectacular setting!
Great day at @bristolbeacon.bsky.social finally able to see Paula Ogun Hector’s incredible Tapestry of Black Britons in glorious real life. I also led a workshop on folk song & Black History for a group of children from St Bede’s School. We had a mighty sing. Huge thanks to all 🙏🏾🖤 #blackhistory
In Greek myth, Niobe lost all fourteen children to divine wrath. Turned to stone, she still weeps, her tears feeding mountain springs. Grief in legend does not end. It becomes landscape. #LegendaryWednesday
